    !@#$ you, shitburger. Not three days ago you were arguing that Zimmerman was criminally negligent, which is entirely disagreeing with what I posted.

    "@#$ you, shitburger," is - quite possibly - the funniest sentence I've ever read on this board.

  2. i am not a celtics fan but i think brad stevens, while risky, is a great move. i view this move similarily to how i view marrone in buffalo. seems to be a grat coach with substance over style and gets his players to excel. may not be playoff this year, but will be sooner rather than later

    Agreed on both fronts. Substance over style is "where it's at."

  3. actually it is because the point I'm trying to make is don't just throw a kid out there and expect him to perform. that's a good way to kill someone's confidence fast. and brett favre was on the decline. the pack was 4-12 Rodgers first year as a backup so it wasn't like favre was doing so amazing that they couldn't turn to their 1st rounder. but that's not the point. the point is I don't think they need to rush things with EJ. if he's not ready then he's not ready

    The Mannings' confidence seems to be okay.

     

    And if any QB loses confidence as he develops, the team who drafted him in the first round made a mistake.

     

    And if EJ isn't ready by the time week 1 comes around, then the Bills made a mistake.

     

    I, personally, think he will be ready. I just hope the coaching staff has the balls to put him in, regardless of how Kolb does in OTAs and preseason. Never forget - Trent Edwards was a Pre-Season Hall of Famer.

  4. Turned 42 back in January. I've been on a pretty regular walking regimen for about a year. A lap around my neighborhood is .75 miles. A couple weeks ago, I thought I'd run it once around. I made it without stopping and felt pretty damn good about myself. Dreams of 5K races and 1/2 marathons were running through my mind.

     

    Then I woke up then next morning. And the next 14 mornings after that. My left leg felt like it was stabbed repeatedly with a dull butter knife, then stomped on for good measure.

     

    I don't anticipate ever running again. Ever.

    You sound a lot like a guy that doesn't know what he's talking about. There are experts just like yourself in the City of Oakland that waited with baited breath for Jamarcus Russel to start. Be careful what you wish for, sir. It is entirely possible that EJ will not work out. Do I want this to happen?.....no freakin way Bro. I was all over EJ to be drafted by us. BUT.....if he looks like a fish out of H2O in preseason he needs to ride the pine. Make no mistake about it, Kolb is a good QB and I'm damn happy we picked him up.

    You have the most natural ability to be a dick. Just saying.

  6. There are some sections of Waterville Road/Route 10 that are curvy, and if you are going fast, and especially if you're on something, are impossible to navigate safely.

     

    The Pats should have known all of this. If they didn't, shame on them.

    Shame on them if they knew this guy was a troublemaker who COULD get into trouble? The NFL is full of those. It's not like the Patriots knew AH a) ever killed anyone or b) ever was going to kill anyone.

     

    If people are going to call the Patriots a "bad organization" for drafting Aaron Hernandez, then those people should be prepared to add many/if not every team to the same list.

     

    I agree there is no mystical "Patriot Way" that keeps players in check. However, I also acknowledge that I remember very few Patriots making news for either running their mouths or getting into trouble. I can think of many teams whose players have gotten into more trouble and have had more bad press ... including the Bills.

  7. I understand having a low opinion on Kolb but I don't get Jackson. Any time I saw him play he was more a runner than passer and not a good one.

    Oh, don't confuse me with thinking that Jackson is a high quality QB (I can see where you would think I think that, though). I just shiver when I think of Kolb taking the field. I just think that Jackson is a better QB than Kolb and I'd feel more secure with Jackson backing up Manuel.

  8. Actually the bolded part is the only reason I could see for having him at all. Insurance policy in case they did not get a QB they wanted in the draft, Once they secured Manuel they no longer had a need for TJax.

    My only reservation is that if they wanted a veteran backup, why keep Kolb and not Jackson? In addition to sucking, Kolb is also fragile. I want EJ Manuel to start immediately. Even if Jackson was still on the roster, I'd want Manuel to start. I'd just feel better having Jackson a) mentoring him and b) backing him up.

     

    I see zero good coming from Kolb being on the roster.

  9. I think it was a disagreement between Buddy and Chan...jmo. Having said that, I don't think he's a good QB.

    I don't think he's a great QB, but there's no reason to believe he wasn't the best QB on the roster last year ... and quite possibly would have been this year, too. He's better than Kolb. I believe that with 100% certainty.
